Our Outreach team provides “whatever-it-takes” care, actively seeking out and engaging with neighbors experiencing homelessness. The team consists of trauma-informed experts that provide support and partnership along their journey to safe and stable housing.
Outreach is made possible by deep collaboration between the Lakeshore Housing Alliance, a program of the Greater Ottawa County United Way, the Michigan State Housing Development Authority, and CAH Outreach staff - serving families and individuals experiencing housing hardship in Ottawa County while actively assessing community needs.
